More progress
Kitchen is basically done.
Gun room progress coming along as well.
Repurposed some SKS rifle crates for storage, they are bloody heavy.
The walls are solid, and the door will be hidden in the wall with a biometric lock(a friends company makes these)
Heating bill so far $0 the wood stove is the only source of heat in the home, eventually there will be some back up baseboard heaters, but haven't got that far yet

Looking good!
Make sure you have a workable Plan B for when the biometric lock system eventually fails. You do not want to completely disassemble a wall to access the hidden electrical components just to get the door open.

A little more progress
Got the deck done. Hand rail up on the stairs inside.
Eventually there will be a full width deck on the south side that will tie into the east deck.

Outstanding - great pictures. One thought - if you are going to put down weed barrier and gravel or something under the deck, or run downspouts down and under, or anything like that, do that before you put in the joists and decking.
If not, no big deal ...
Looks amazing, thanks for sharing
